At a rough guess: 5 sections; 20 rows per section; 15 seats per row...1500 seats.

Even if he filled every one and had another 100 or so along the walls, 1600 people. 1750 max. Still dwarfed by Trump events!

...and Obama couldn’t fill that room?

They may not bother to turn out for such speeches, but they still idolize him.

“Obama delivered a short speech centered on unity”

In which he said “I” over 100 times. I looked it up the capacity is 7500. So if the story is wrong and they dropped a 0 it was a capacity crowd, which would be expected in Mexifornia. If the story is right well maybe the bloom is off rose or the fly is off the ...

120 x 63’ Ballroom E dimensions, 7,560 square feet. Don’t know what that translates into for seating capacity.

They told 750 local EBT card recipients their benes for the month would be locked out if they didn’t show up.

Too bad some smart person hasn’t figured out a way to “hack” into obama’s teleprompter...to blank it out, mid-speech; or even change it to Spanish.

Everyone knows he can’t recite “Jack and Jill” without his prompter, so he’d be a stuttering mess trying to figure out his next line.

He’s so dependent on that prompter to praising Trump, and he probably wouldn’t even notice...he’d just just keep on reading the words...someone else’s words.

One of the chief ironies of obama is, he once claimed that anything conservatives say is, “it’s just words, just words”, when his entire life has been based on just that...words. Who, other than class-less bammy gifts a complete set of his speeches to the Queen of England...and in an unusable format.

His entire tenure of “leading from behind” was based on his speeches. He seemed to think any word he uttered was an excerpt from the “Sermon on the Mount”, when what we heard was the “teacher” on the “Peanuts” cartoons..(blah, blah, blah, I, I, Me, Me, My, My).

Yep, hack away his teleprompter and see what a drooling idiot looks like.

The crowds were all in the hallways trying to figure out which bathroom to use before going into the venue.

[“politics of hope.” ]

Hope in one hand and **** in the other. That’s all the left can offer after they intentionally destroy everything they touch.

Unlike them, Trump is delivering and dragging them kicking and screaming all the way.

The middle row has 15 chairs per row.

The middle section has about 20 rows.

That’s 300 people.

I count 5 sections.

That’s 1500 chairs minimum.

His “ground breaking” (according to one ardent lefty listener) speech was carried live on NPR, bringing tears to the eyes of some lefties as he used the word “I” 101 times, while taking credit for everything positive that has happened years after he left office ...

Six sections of 300 chairs each (20 rows @15 chairs per row per section)= 1800 in the front section. It most likely is double that with a back section not in the picture.

Looks like 1500 seats, but areas probably be closed off.
